What did you do for thematic? I talked about Hertzl and Bismarck

whats (x^4)-(X^3) =25

This is the chem thread i made

My thematic was Louis XIV and Hitler. Imo it came out really good

I did Hitler and Bismarck

@GGTRIG what question was that??

@GGTRIG you mean zeros or factoring or what?

its not the one on the regent
Im just curious

You guys know the question that asked to factor completely x^4 bla bla bla it was an shir answer question

Solve for X algebraically
(4^x)-(3^x)=25

My factors were (x^2+4)(4x-1) something like that

@mikeymold96 it came out to (x^2+4)(4x-1)

YES thank you

when someone finds a link to an unofficial answer key can they send it here?

I’m not going to lie this was the less difficult regent out of the other three common core howvwere the multiple choice was harder then the extended response

Yeah please sent it in this thread so I know what I got, also where are you guys from, I’m from brooklyn

why do we take regents?

The one with Jasmine investing 100 monthly was the 1.0025 one with the fraction. This is because it said each MONTH she invests 100, it wasn’t a one time thing. The ones with fractions gave numbers in the 1000s which made more sense than numbers in the 100s which the non fraction answers gave as even if she didn’t get interest at all, she would have atleast 1200 by the end of the year. By adding 1+.03/12 you must get 1.0025, therefore the answer with 1.0025 and the fraction was right

there were a lot of logs, wasn’t too happy about that. However there wasn’t any rationalizing of fractional expressions, so i was very happy about that

no questions on margin of error
